Hearty Granola
This granola is great with plain Greek yogurt and the two make a great canvas for add-ins. So far I’m pushing strawberry season! Note: Recipe is adapted from the granola served at the Hotel Jerome, in Aspen, CO.

Sun & Snow
Lots of sun and snow this week, and hello, COLD. Curious to see its rare frozen state, I went to check out the fountain in Bryant Park early this morning. Here it is, looking to me like a cauldron boiled over: The snow/sun pattern all week left a striking visual and had me wondering how […]

Silky Chocolate Mousse (Made with Tofu)
Gulp, it’s Friday the 13th! But this time around that means that it’s also Valentine’s Day Eve , so I was thinking that a Friday chocolate repeat would be okay (we made Double Chocolate cookies last week…). Plus, I’ve been wanting to try making Chocolate Mousse with tofu for a too long now and this […]

Amazing Recovery Smoothie
We first tried these ‘bloody good smoothies’ with lunch after long rides on Halloween weekend. Last night was our first dip below freezing here in New York, and based on the forecast it looks like it’s going to get too consistently cold for frozen smoothies starting… today. But since beets are still in season these […]
